Learn Phalcon (framework)

May 16, 2015

Phalcon is a high-performance web framework for PHP based on the MVC pattern. Originally released in 2012, it is an open-source framework licensed under the terms of the BSD license.

Unlike most PHP frameworks, Phalcon is implemented as an extension written in C in order to optimize performance. This is intended to boost execution speed and resource usage with the goal of handling more requests per second than comparable frameworks written primarily in PHP.
